Wyq., Oct. 26 -Ooremor Urooks today received a report from Gil lette, Wyo., near which Is located tho camp of the Fto Indians, saying that all there it quiet and the Indiana are Inoffensive. No credence Is given to the report that the Indians have engaged a number of cowboys in battle. A similar report. It Is said, was circulated a few days ago. The band of Ute Indians are now on Little Powder river, about forty miles north of Gillette, Wyo., and are teaiporarlly camped there on account of the storm. Major C. H. Grierson, In coni.muid of Troop M, Tenth cavalry, which was sent to escort the Indians back to their reser vation, decided, after they refused to sur render, to await reinforcements, before rounding them up, and ordi ra have been Is sued by Major General A. W. Gret-ly for the dispatching of two more troops of the Tenth cavalry from Fort Robinson, Neb. Aa Boon a these troops arrive at the mili tary camp north of Gillette the entire bat talion will move forward and surround the Indian, camp on Powder river and demand the aurrender of the V'tes, who are 300 stronf. If they still refuse to accompany the troops an attack will be the only alternative. WESTERN MATTERS AT CAPITAL Rami Carriers Appointed for e- braska. , Iowa. and Sooth , Dakota Routes. , .. ..

ALL PLATFORMS S1ENT UNTIL !896 ( nllnm nnd Rlklna Aeta Ruth Passed Before Tarty Made Any Official t Iterance an Subject. CHICAGO. Oct. :.-Lelie M. Shaw, sec retary of the treasury, was the chief speaker at a republican rally tonight in the suburb of Oak Park. He devoted the greater part of his sjieech to denials of the statements attributed lo William J. Bryan particularly thoce In which claim Is made that much that hna been done by the re publican party Is In line wlt.i policies pre viously outlined by the democrats. The secretary claitred that the democratic party had no share In any of the measures parsed recently for the public good, except the rate bill, and he accorded them only small credit In that. . Secretary Shaw said In part: Colonel Bryan lias been most eloquent this seawn In clslnWng that the popularity of the present congre.oi and administration Is dun to the adoption bv tliem of d-mo-i-ratle policies. Ho said that if the demo cratic party could have secured patents upon its recommendations, the present ad ministration wotilo long since have been compelled to go Into llqiildctlon. As umisl, the eloquent orator contents hlmaelf with rhetoric and waives proof. Among the many achievements of the last conirreas are the pure food bill, t he meat Inspection bill, the denatured alcohol bill, the retires nlsntlon of the consular service, quarantine against yellow fever, the hill to safeguard naturalization of Im migrants more rild steamboat Inspection, the employers' liability act and the limita tion of Immunity to witnesses In criminal case. None, of these Is of democratic origin tnd none were ever suggested In a democratic platform. What Densorrntle Plntforras Ray. The only legislation for which ths demo cratic party can possibly claim approval even Is the rate bill. Three times In Its history the demoerstic platform has re ferred to transportation and in substan tially the same langusge. It has never promised anything definite. I quote Its first utterance from Its platform of lSSfi; "We demand the enlargement of the powers of the Interstate Commerce com mission and such restrictions and guaxan teee In the control of railroads aa will pro tect the people from robbery and op pression." Colonel Bryan cannot be. charged with undue modesty in seeking to trade the iia rent age of the rate bill, which gives the nterstate Commerce .commission specldu utnortty to ultimately determine rates, subject to review by the courts, to the loose and Indefinite platform suggestion of hla party. The history of transportation, legislation. state and national. clearly ilisprovca Colonel Hryan a boast that the democratic party is In the remotest degree responsible therefor. The first bill on the snbleet ever Intro duced in congress was entitld "A bill to regulate commerce by rnilroada among the several states." It passed the house with only five democratic votes In Its favor. No democrat 'spoke In favor of the bill.

Its first reference to the subject wsa in IK. The last democratic natlonel convention g.M'S one step further and camps nearer republican grounds, for it mentions rebates and illaciiminuttons and demands "prompt and arteouate relief from these abuses." It Is doubtful whether the party would have ventured so far from Jeffersonian principle had not the Elklns bill been enacted, under which the present sdmlnistration line brought more than half of Its successful prosecutions . against combined capital. The democratic party can usually be re lied upon to arrive In port In a decade or so from the time of unloading of repub lican cargoes. Fairbanks at Topeka. TO'PEKA, Kan..

CHICAGO, Oct. af.-AII differences exitt- tng between the coal operators tnd the I union miners of Illinois were amlckbly set- I tied alt Joint meeting here tonight between the executive committees of the operators and the workmen. The chief contention was the fine of $500,000 which the operators wanted the workmen to pay because they refused to I work on "Vlrden day." October 12. the an niversary of the rlotn at that place In 1R9S. The agreement under which the miners and operators are working stipu lates that all mines shall be operated every day except regular holidays of the United J States. . Failure to live up to the agree ment calls for a tine of 110 upon each miner refusing to work. The operntora figured that the shutdown of October 12 was a io- lation of the agreement and that the total j fines amounted to $fJ').ooo. . After a lengthy dlcuaslon the operators un ijn iiui. iu iinptiev ine line anu mis decision ended the controversy.
